Howdy,
I built my 318 and run the xe268 cam
However
- alloy heads (65cc)
- block was milled to zero deck
- use kb167 pistons
- ld4b manifold
- hei ignition
- Holley sniper
- Factory 3.23 gears
- stock 904 t/c opened up and modified to about a 2100rpm stall
- comp ratio is about 9.6:1
- use 273 valve train with Toyota Corolla 4K pushrods
Next step will be headers, have some block huggers to go on, not much else will fit due to the steering box (rhd car) and possibly programmable ignition timing to work with the sniper
Car drives really nice, seems most comfortable at about 830 idle rpm, has a nice lope to it
